Baileyana Winery The Baileyana winery is perched on a knoll overlooking the Edna Valley of San Luis Obispo. In 1998, the Niven family, viticultural pioneers in the valley and owners of Baileyana, gave Burgundian born and educated Christian Roguenant a blank slate to design the winery of his dreams. From the fruit delivery system and open top fermentors to the three climate controlled barrel rooms, the winery is a high tech marvel. I've seen wineries all over the place, says Roguenant, who has made wine on five continents. This winery is compact, versatile, and easy to operate. Also, the natural light makes it a very pleasant place for people to work. The winery is located in the Niven family's estate vineyards, just a few miles from the Pacific Ocean.
